Fire Ants, those scorching stinging insects, have a strange attraction to technology but no one really knows why. From tearing up wires and creating short circuits, fire ants just love to destroy technology. Watch them in action in this video from BBC Earth.

Even more amazing, the fire ants can avoid getting zapped by the microwave. The ants can sense where the waves are being sent and move around to avoid it. Clever little buggers they are. [BBC Earth via Neatorama]
